The past few days I have really been enjoying life.  I was allowed to go home last Friday.  All my blood cells are being produced and working properly.

On Saturday my daughter Sarah came home from a week in America and brought my mother with her. Mom has been keeping company while the rest of the family is at work or school.  It’s nice having her here.

One of the medicines I take can and will cause any manner of chaos in the body. For the past few days my arms have been as good as useless.  They were sore and achy and pretty much immobile.  It was a miserable couple of days.  Turns out that my dosage was too high and that is how it manifested itself.  Apparently this sort of problem will be an on going challenge for the next year or so.

In general I’m doing well, but I’m still weak and tired and have a battle going on inside of me.  I mostly spend my days on the sofa under a blanket.  I still have a long road ahead of me before I’m my old self again. Between the medicines and my own body I feel like I have my work cut out for me.  But all of it is normal. This is a long, windy road full of up and downs and surprises.  It will get done one day at a time. And as always your prayers are needed and appreciated.
